Movement in Length of Pipe Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Change in Length = Length of Pipe*Elastic Modulus*Change in Temperature
ΔL = L_pipe*e*∆T
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Change in Length - (Measured in Millimeter) - Change in Length is after the application of force, change in the dimensions of the object.
Length of Pipe - (Measured in Millimeter) - Length of Pipe describes the length of the pipe in which the liquid is flowing.
Elastic Modulus - (Measured in Pascal) - The Elastic Modulus is the ratio of Stress to Strain.
Change in Temperature - (Measured in Kelvin) - The Change in Temperature is the difference between the initial and final temperature.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of Pipe: 0.1 Meter --> 100 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
Elastic Modulus: 25 Pascal --> 25 Pascal No Conversion Required
Change in Temperature: 50 Kelvin --> 50 Kelvin No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

ΔL = L_pipe*e*∆T --> 100*25*50

Evaluating ... ...

ΔL = 125000

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

125 Meter -->125000 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

125000 Millimeter <-- Change in Length

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What is Expansion Joint in Piping?

Expansion joints are used in piping systems to absorb thermal expansion or terminal movement where the use of expansion loops is undesirable or impractical. Expansion joints are available in many different shapes and materials.

What is Thermal Stress?

Thermal stress is mechanical stress created by any change in temperature of a material. These stresses can lead to fracturing or plastic deformation depending on the other variables of heating, which include material types and constraints.

How to Calculate Movement in Length of Pipe?

Movement in Length of Pipe calculator uses Change in Length = Length of Pipe*Elastic Modulus*Change in Temperature to calculate the Change in Length, The Movement in Length of Pipe is defined as parameter influencing the movement that should be allowed for, if Expansion Joints are to be used. Change in Length is denoted by ΔL symbol.

How to calculate Movement in Length of Pipe using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Movement in Length of Pipe, enter Length of Pipe (L_pipe), Elastic Modulus (e) & Change in Temperature (∆T) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Movement in Length of Pipe calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.3E+8 = 0.1*25*50.
